All wrong - lol
Just toss the cherries in a bit of the dry cake mix. Set them aside. Then mix the cake up as usual, folding the cherries in last. The dry cake mix is just enough to stop them from sliding to the bottom of the batter before the cake is firm enough to hold them.

Don't make the cake mix too wet. Before you add the cherries to the cake mix toss the cherries in a little flour.

Try coating the cherries in flour before mixing into the cake mixture

at first you'll have a batter this is extremely thick. If the batter is in simple terms too skinny, not something you do will save them from sinking. Now assuming you're utilising the desirable consistancy batter, be useful the cherries are dry then shake them in a paper or plastic bag containing some flour, then gently fold them into the batter by way of fact the final step in the previous baking.

Coat the cherries in flour before stirring them into your cake batter. This should keep them suspended throughout the cake. Alternatively, use a heavier cake recipe (I think a Madeira cake should do the trick!)

Before you start mixing the ingredients, take some of the flour and use it to dust the cherries. Continue as usual but don't over mix.
Cook it
Slice it
Enjoy your cake.

Are you talking of dried cherries or fresh? If it's dried then toss them thru flour then add to the cake mix. I guess you could try that with fresh, but the water content is alot higher, so you might want to cook them out.

Lightly toss them in flour before adding to mix. this makes the mixture stick to the cherries and they don't sink. My sister makes cherry cake to die for and she told me this secret years ago.

I find using a dryer cake mix helps, a bit more flour and a little less milk.
